Robert Bateman Chickadee and Rose Hips - Limited Edition Print 1500 s/n Paper 5" x 7" If bird lovers had to pick a favorite garden bird, surely the chickadee would be high on the list. Although not spectacular, they seem to be lively balls of joy, especially around a winter bird feeder. Friendliness is a word that seems to apply. I remember one winter's day when I was a boy watching with astonishment a man standing in a park holding out his hand with one sunflower seed at a time and chickadees coming to pluck them from his fingers. When I returned home, I tried it on our back porch with a bit of fruit cake. I saw a chickadee in a nearby bush. I made a squeaking sound, and instantly I was delighted to feel the delicate cool feet on my fingers and the little beak snatching my offering. Those were black-capped chickadees which live all across North America from the Appalachains to Alaska. In our western back yeard they are replaced by the chestnut-backed chickadee. As far as I can tell, they are close cousins except for the color. Of course, rosehips are found everywhere across North America as well, so you might very well be rewarded with this combination.
